On May 23rd, SHADAC hosted a virtual tour of State Health Compare, a new, user-friendly online tool for obtaining and comparing state-level estimates related to health and health care.
State Health Compare: How's It Different?
State Health Compare combines estimates previously available separately through the SHADAC Data Center and the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation (RWJF) Data Hub. The new, merged tool brings together estimates on a wide range of health-related topics in an effort to allow analysts and policymakers to view state-level data through a broad Culture of Health lens.
The Virtual Tour: What Will You Learn?
SHADAC Senior Research Fellow Joanna Turner guided attendees on a tour of State Health Compare's user interface. Ms. Turner provided an overview of available estimates and showed how users can generate maps, bar charts, trend lines, and tables to examine the estimates within and across states and over time, as well as by characteristics such as age, race/ethnicity, etc. Attendees also learned how to download graphics and export the underlying data.
Ms. Turner was joined on the webinar by Carolyn Miller, Senior Program Officer at RWJF, and by SHADAC Director Lynn Blewett. SHADAC Senior Research Fellow Brett Fried will also be available to answer questions.

This report summarizes the work conducted under the project, "Paying for Value in Medicaid: A Synthesis of Advanced Payment Models in Four States." The project was funded by the Medicaid and CHIP Payment and Access Commission (MACPAC) and conducted by both MACPAC staff and staff at the State Health Access Data Assistance Center (SHADAC) at the University of Minnesota, School of Public Health. The purpose of the project was to better understand specifics of different state approaches to Medicaid payment and delivery system reform (e.g., shared savings programs, episode-based payment initiatives, global budgeting), and to identify common themes across states.

The new, merged tool brings together estimates on a wide range of health-related topics in an effort to allow analysts and policymakers to view state-level data through a broad Culture of Health lens.
Topics for which estimates are available through State Health Compare include: health insurance coverage, cost of care, health behaviors, health outcomes, acccess to and utilization of care, care quality, public health, and socioeconomic indicators.
Users can explore these topics within and across states and look at trends over time and by characteristics such as age, race/ethnicity, etc., through user-generated maps, bar charts, trend lines, and tables. Graphics are easily downloadable, and the underlying data can be exported.
